What was he standing on? Snot - now I have to go find that out. Anyway, as an administrator [...]

From Theory to Practice

pjhiggins Twitterpoll: If you could have your administrators read one book this summer, what would it be? This question comes from one of the administrators who has become part of my PLN over the past year. Now, before I go into how I responded, some of the replies were: ssandifer @pjhiggins wikinomics chrislehmann @pjhiggins Moral Leadership — Thomas [...]

The Power of the backchannel

Like many of my twitter friends, I am still in a sort of after-glow from attending the TLt Summit last week in Saskatoon. As I begin to connect some of the things that went on and bring together ideas with conversations, I am slowly getting a better idea of how the conference participants’ and their [...]

TLt Summit - staying motivated/moving on

Last week had me attending my first “Techie” conference in full force. The TLt Summit in Saskatoon was truly an inspiring experience. I sat through some incredible keynotes by the likes of Stephen Downes, George Siemens, Brian Lamb and Rick Schwier. I attended sessions by cutting edge educators right here from Saskatchewan like Dean Shareski, [...]

Transformative administration

Our school just finished DEAR reading time - 15 minutes of each day dedicated to reading. My book of the day is Transformative Assessment by W.James Popham. I’m just comfortably started the book and enjoy the dedicated time I can have to just read. Today I read a great line: Instruction should not be an Ouija-boardlike [...]

Summer Vacation?

Dean Shareski has an interesting post about summer holidays. As Dean comments

For me though, I don’t get as excited as I once did about June and it’s not just that I haven’t spend 185 days with kids, although that does make a difference, but as I said before, I still longed for summer vacation even after I left the classroom.

I don't need no stinkin' tv!

My name is Kelly. I've been free of commercial television for 13 years now. Well, that's not true. Every Christmas while staying at the hotel with my wife's family, I can't help but watch a few Star Trek and CSI.

Over the past few weeks, I’ve noticed a few themes that have caught my attention.

I listened to Jon Gordon’…
